An affordable three-bedroom end-of-terrace arranged over four levels, this house offers practical family living or a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity. The ground-floor porch leads to a bright lounge with a floor-to-ceiling window and built-in storage; a kitchen/diner and utility occupy the mid level. Two bedrooms sit on the third level, with the master and bathroom on the top floor. Total internal area is approximately 1,024 sq ft.
The home benefits from gas-fired central heating, double glazing, plenty of built-in storage and a small rear garden. Located on St Andrews Close in Blackhill, it is within walking distance of three well-rated primary schools and Consett Academy, and has good road and public transport links to Durham and Tyneside. Council Tax Band A keeps ongoing costs low.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the plot is small with on-street parking only, some external maintenance is needed (overgrown hedges indicated), and the property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s. The area is within a coal mining reporting zone — further searches are recommended. The layout is split over four levels, which may not suit those with restricted mobility.
Overall this is a sensible purchase for first-time buyers seeking space and local schools, or investors looking for a low-entry property with straightforward rental appeal. There is clear potential to modernise key rooms to add value, while retaining the practical benefits of gas heating, double glazing and ample storage.
